Introduction to the Sonus Faber PS-G 101 In-wall Sub
The Sonus Faber PS-G 101 In-wall Sub is a revolutionary addition to the world of architectural audio. Developed by the masters of Italian sound in Vicenza, this subwoofer is designed to provide the foundation for a high-fidelity soundstage without the bulk of a traditional cabinet. It brings the legendary “Voice of Sonus Faber” to the very lowest octaves.
While many in-wall subwoofers suffer from thin, anemic output, the Sonus Faber PS-G 101 In-wall Sub is engineered for authority. It fills your room with rich, tactile low frequencies that bring movies to life and add body to your music collection, all while remaining completely hidden behind a sleek, paintable grille.
Artisanal Design: The Palladio Aesthetic
The Sonus Faber PS-G 101 In-wall Sub belongs to the Level 6 Palladio collection, meaning it shares the design DNA of the brand’s flagship speakers. The most striking visual element is the front baffle, which is hand-finished in fine black leather.
This use of leather isn’t just a luxury statement; it helps to dampen acoustic reflections around the driver, ensuring the Sonus Faber PS-G 101 In-wall Sub delivers a pure, uncolored performance. The “trimless” magnetic metal grille allows the unit to sit nearly flush with the wall, blending seamlessly into high-end interior designs.
The Engineering of Subterranean Sound
At the core of the Sonus Faber PS-G 101 In-wall Sub is a specialized 250mm (10-inch) high-excursion woofer. This driver is built to move significant volumes of air within the confines of a wall cavity.
High-Rigidity Diaphragm
The cone is crafted from a proprietary sandwich construction material that ensures maximum rigidity with minimum mass. This allows the Sonus Faber PS-G 101 In-wall Sub to stop and start with incredible speed, delivering bass that is “fast” and articulate rather than muddy or boomy.
Advanced Motor System
The powerful magnet assembly and long-throw voice coil allow the Sonus Faber PS-G 101 In-wall Sub to handle intense dynamic peaks found in modern 4K soundtracks. Whether it’s the roar of an engine or the subtle pluck of a bass guitar, the detail is rendered with absolute precision.
Stealth Integration and Performance Benefits
Integrating a Sonus Faber PS-G 101 In-wall Sub offers the ultimate advantage for modern architects and interior designers. You no longer have to sacrifice the layout of a room to accommodate a large subwoofer box.
- Zero Floor Footprint: Perfect for minimalist living rooms and dedicated media rooms.
- Uniform Bass Response: Multiple Sonus Faber PS-G 101 In-wall Sub units can be installed around the room to eliminate bass “dead zones” and “standing waves.”
- Paintable Stealth: The grille can be customized to match any wall texture or color, making the subwoofer virtually invisible.

System Matching and Amplification Guide
As a passive subwoofer, the Sonus Faber PS-G 101 In-wall Sub requires a dedicated subwoofer amplifier with an adjustable crossover.
- LFE Channel: Connect the subwoofer output of your AV Receiver to a power amplifier, then to the Sonus Faber PS-G 101 In-wall Sub.
- Crossover Setting: For the best blend with Palladio Level 5 or 6 in-wall speakers, we suggest a crossover point of 80Hz.
- Multiple Subs: For rooms larger than 30sqm, we highly recommend using two Sonus Faber PS-G 101 In-wall Sub units to ensure pressurized, even bass throughout the seating area.
